Game Thread: Twins v Astros, 6/7 @ 1:10 PM CT (or when the rain stops)

I think it will be Morales for Kubel eventually. However, I'm sure Fuld will be ready first and he'll possibly replace Kubel because that would clear a 40-man spot for Morales. Then when Morales is ready, he'll replace Hicks.

I thought the Pinto going down issue was poo poo'd threads ago.

 

Meh, wouldn't be my choice, but I stop short of outright poo pooing because one, not my decision, two, others (and by others, I mean those hired to make those decisions, not other posters) know more than me about the players involvd

You're thinking of Pinto exploding issue...

I'm contemplating whether it would be dog abuse to harass my dog enough so that she stays awake for the rest of the day ...

 

this wanting to go outside and play at 2 a.m. is ridiculous.

 

Your dog sounds like a cat in spirit.

I bet a cat would pee in those shoes.

I still have shoes with puppy bites.

Puppy bites are adorable. Urine stains, not so much.

Not a thing I thought I would ever type.

Mine has never peed outside his box, except twice ... once when the door was closed to where his litter box was and he had no choice; two, when he got locked in a closet, where his litter box wasn't, and he had no choice. Both times were with house sitters, too.

Three runs ain't nearly enough. Another four or five, yeah, then Gardy can bring in Burton. If I knew how to do GIFs, if that's the right acronym, I'd do the gladiator guy with Gardy's head photoshopped, captioned, of course, "Are you not entertained?!"

Noooooooo, not your cat. I meant some evil outsider cat.

Looks like more Twins Baseball! coming up.

Hope this guy pulls a Feldman.

Maybe you could do Gardy a new gnome: http://blogs.twincities.com/twins/2014/06/07/twinsights-twins-skipper-sees-more-dumbledore-than-himself-in-gardy-gnome/

 

 

I thought the photos of the gnome figurines bore a strong resemblance to Gardenhire if his beard grew out just a little.

Clutch walks. Twins baseball. Love it. (Actually, I really do. No sarcasm for me.)

Wasn't Gardy most recently a Metro-gnome?

[Gibby]

I love how brutal TK is.

Beautiful AB by Danny Santana.

[JB_Iowa]

We have a little pick the stick contest. Santana was my pick for this series. I'm smiling.

You called it.

 

Exclamation point, thy name is Santana.

Boy the Astros look brutal

Making Gardy look good putting him in the lead off spot

What ever happened to Pick the Stick? It seems like it disappeared when Coomer did.

[Craig Arko]

I think it's safe to say that they are brutal.

[glunn]

Twins are building a nice lead and picking up Morales suggests that Ryan believes that they can contend this year.

[stringer bell]

Mauer can't get a hit when he singles!

Depending on where you stand on previous posts, you're either a lucky dog or a top cat.

Why is Joe such a pumpkin right now

Glorm!!! Just standing in for Brian.

Let's not criticize my second favorite AL team until the game is over. I remember Milwaukee down four and winning by three earlier this week.
